"What ever man. I'm free now right. No more favors. I've done my end of the bargain. Now where is my girl friend?"

"Not just yet."

Nick turned to Lex, "What? No I'm done. I've stolen for you I handed you another freak an exchange for my girlfriend and my freedom. What else do you want?"

"There's the matter of the weapon. I just need you to turn it on."

"The weapon? Why? I thought you were just going to use it in a worse case scenario?"

"Yes, but we need to perform the test run and all of the data that Wayne enterprise had on it mysteriously disappeared so we don't know how to turn it on without your help."

Nick looked back at a unconscious Andrea regretfully and shook his head,

"No, that's your problem not mine. We had a deal. Now where is Molly?"

Nick said his face twitching with anger as he twirled his hands making and energy ball.

Suddenly some the guard's attacked him pointing their guns at Nick's blue energy ball. A white electric bolt suddenly extinguished the blue energy and then they shot Nick. He fell to the ground.

Then the guard's went to Lex waiting for orders.

"Put them in the same cell." The guard's dragged both Andrea's and Nick's unconscious bodies.

Lex took out his phone, "Get me Molly."

Clark called Andrea and didn't get any answer. So he super sped to the lab Andrea had mentioned she would be there. He used his x-ray vision on the lab and saw a fully working lab. Andrea had told him most of it was deserted then he saw Lex there ordering he guards to take Andrea and Nick in the same cell. And then he heard Lex ask for Molly Grigs he heard their conversation.

"Make it quick Luthor." Molly said in indigent voice.

"If you ever want to see your boyfriend alive again you will come here and talk some sense into him."

He then turned the phone off without a reply.

Clark super sped through the lab. The guards were dragging Andrea and Nick into a cell. Clark waited for the guards to leave to get out of his super speed motion so they were not able to see him. He was about to break open the medal door when suddenly he became weak noticing meteor rocks and bottles of liquid meteors on a table next to the wall. Clark fell to the ground trying to stagger his way away from it.

Chloe drove her bug in silence. Bruce sat in the passenger seat leaning his hand into his fist. This situation was getting stickier by the minute. What started at first as a simple mission had turned into a roll a coaster of emotion driven confusion. Bruce was not used to such confusion and uncertainty. If there was anything constant in his life it was his certainty. He was always so sure of himself and what he had to do. He had this resolve ever since he was young. Nothing would distract him from his mission, nothing.

But now with Chloe into the picture everything had been turned up side down it no longer was a cut and dry mission of capturing the bad guy. And now he's met this Clark character who happens to be Chloe's overprotective best friend and one of these meta-humans. When he first met Clark he was glad that Chloe had someone in her life that was over protective but now… He doesn't no what to think of him, he's this meta-human that protects Chloe. That might be reassuring but he has met people with powers before and they all turned out to be criminals. He didn't trust Clark. He made it his rule of thumb to not trust people too easily or hardly at all. Actually the only alive person he trusted was his butler. But getting to know Chloe he started to feel like that maybe it was ok for him to trust her. Her whole attitude has impressed him. She was so focused on the mission even at the expense of her best friend, who not to long ago she expressed deep faith in, would not detour her from completing it.
